Ext4 Developer Interlock Call: 04/23/2007 Meeting Minutes TESTING - extents testing - Discussed methods for testing extents on highly fragmented filesystems. - Jose will look into possible tests, including perhaps using the 'aged' option in FFSB - Ted suggested creating a mountoption that creates a bad block allocator which it jumps to a new block group every 8 blocks. This would force a very large number of extents, and may be a good test for extents.
What i am doing for creating a large number of extents is dd if=/dev/zero of=myfile count=10 seek=20 while [ 1 ]; do dd if=/dev/zero of=myfile count=10 seek=$seek; seek=`expr $seek + 20`; done -aneesh - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
